Out there things can happen and certainly do to people as brainy and footsy as you

About Me

I am funner than the average girl cuz I'm actually fun. Yes I said funner and yes I know it's not a word. I frequently make up words and use them in everyday conversation. I find that Webster of Websters Dictionary left out quite a few when collaborating his masterpiece. There is a "Dictionary of Erica" and I will let you read it if you must. Although, read is a bad verb to use as I haven't actually transferred said words onto paper at this point in my life. I curse like a trucker and as hard as I try I cannot stop, so I've learned to accept this fact. It also has to be said that I love to laugh at everything. Appropriate or not - I really have no discretion. You'll know when I find something exceptionally funny as I tend to snort very loudly and have been known to pee my pants on occasion. It's fun really I swear.
I am very clumsy and trip over painted sidewalk lines. I run into things quite frequently- things like walls and furniture and most objects that don't move. Most people say I dance like Elaine on Seinfeld- and I'm not going to lie, I've danced in front of the mirror and there is quite a resemblance. People often tell me I look like Kelly Clarkson, which used to be fun but has long since worn out it's appeal. I get equally annoyed by hearing I look like her as I do if you try and convince me you see no resemblance. The only thing you've convinced me of in that statement is that you need to be kicked in the shin. Consider that a fair warning as you'll get no more.
I put hot sauce on everything. I probably buy more hair and makeup products in one month than you do in an entire year. I carry floss in my purse cuz I'm terrified of ever having dentures. I eat cereal out of the box- but not the kind with dehydrated marshmallows that chalk-ify your teeth. I sing in the shower, on the street, in target, walmart, mejer, jewel, and the car very loudly- my neighbors and fellow shoppers probably hate me. If there was a medal for screaming random nonsensical things at people I would definately receive it hands down. Outlandish things tend to happen to me on a bi-hourly basis and I like to talk about them frequently-thus I always have a random story to tell.
I love my friends to death- they rock and are absofuckinglutely fabulous! MyGen Profile Generator

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I really have no desire at this point in my life to meet anyone "famous." That being said the following list has been compiled after long and pain staking surveys with myself. It was hard to narrow it down, but here is a list of "people" that I not only want to meet- that's not enough- I want to have a long winded conversation with EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM- and no I do not mean the actors that played the characters I am referencing- I want to meet the actual characters they played.
